About us

LINK Integrated Rehabilitation Centre for Addicts (LINK IRCA) is a transformative initiative of the LINK Anti Addiction Citizens Committee (LINK AACC) — a Registered Society, founded on August 25th in 1991 and formally registered as a Public Charitable Society on November 5th  in 1992. It was established with a noble mission: to provide effective, accessible, and community-oriented solutions for the prevention and management of alcohol addiction and drug abuse.
Driven by a growing concern over the rising tide of substance use and its devastating effects on individuals, families, and communities, LINK was born out of a collective vision shared by medical professionals, educators, social workers, and citizens committed to creating change. Over the last three decades, LINK has grown to become a pioneering name in de-addiction, rehabilitation, and awareness-building across Karnataka and beyond.
 We have so far conducted 83 community based De-addiction Camps, through which LINK has treated and rehabilitated many alcoholic patients in rural areas with nearly 75 percent success rate.  As the figure suggests ex-patients play a major role in advertising the agency by their sober life. LINK celebrated 34 years of existence and growth in the field of prevention, treatment and rehabilitation of addicts with much enthusiasm to help people of various substance abuses and bring them to the mainstream of the Society.
